Hole still not fixed
Hole still not fixed
Still a hole there - still damaging our cars
There is a hole at the end of our gravel driveway that our cars hit everyday going in and out of our driveway. We have opened several cases explaining that the WHOLE ally needs repaved. Twice now y'all have sent out crews to put down pavement in some of the holes. The pavement is loose and keeps breaking apart, causing more damage. Neither time has the crew repaved the ally as they should have and neither time did the crew put pavement in the hole in front of our driveway. Now, y'all are closing the cases I open, stating that crews have already been to my location, however, they haven't fixed anything, but consistently made it worse. We are documenting the damage being done to our cars and everyday I am opening a case here until y'all fix the ally properly by repaving the entire ally. My questions are why aren't you fixing it correctly? Is it because our address is not in a rich neighborhood? Do we not deserve an ally we can drive on without damaging our cars? Please actually fix the issue.
Large limb from tree broke and fell in windstorm. Limb has been moved to the side of the road.
Water pressure lower than normal.
Streetlight at corner of Pinehurst Drive and Pine Meadows Drive on South East corner does not stay on consistently.
Snow in the alley on west kirkwood. Between elm st and oak st. The driveways of the people who live on that stretch are only accessible by the alley and it hasn’t been cleared at all. Multiple cars have gotten stuck in the snow through out the day.
Streetlight is out, no lights from houses in the area so it is extremely dark at night.
I am retired and live across Woodlawn Avenue from the Bryan Park Pool. In the morning I usually sit on my deck to drink coffee and read the paper. The person who mows and string trims in the park often (five days/week?) starts mowing shortly after 8 am. It's loud and annoying, and the last straw was when it happened this morning - SATURDAY! He mowed the grass strip between Woodlawn and the parking lot, then the strip across Woodlawn along that parking lot, then the grass strip directly outside my yard! My cat jumped up and ran inside, and this was at 8:30. I'm sure many of my neighbors would agree that this is unnecessary; how can mowing be so urgent that it has to be done at 8:00 on Saturday morning? I will add that the gentleman does a great job; the park is mowed and trimmed and free of trash. But please make a change so that the loud machinery is operated later in the day. Thank you.
I don't know if this is a problem or not. The water meter pit/hole in my backyard always has a puddle on top of it. I haven't tried to open the lid to see if the hole is full of water. I don't see it flowing under the fence into the parking lot. Do you have an explanation or will you investigate? Thanks Rich
